http://www.pw.org/content/2011_mfa_rankings_the_top_fifty_0 The magazine Poets and Writers publishes a survey and ranking of Graduate Writing Programs every year. There’s always at least a little disagreement about whether it’s a worthwhile survey but if you would like to take a look, this is the link. You might also want to take a look at the guide put together by the AWP at this link http//www.guide.awpwriter.org . This information is fairly complete about cost, location, degrees offered, etc. Mary
